I've never tried to make tomato soup from scratch. Maybe gazpacho...

Poor roomie.

so very much this. He was having a sneezing fit this morning that must have beef awful. On the other hand he has an excuse for going to Cold Stone Creamery every day for a peanut butter shake.

Mashed potato and gravy? Pumpkin pie filling?

ooh! Both great ideas. We can blend the potatoes with the gravy for dinner and the pie filling with rum & oj for dessert.

Lucky bastard. (Ok, not really)

Can anyone tell me how to make an icon for LJ or whatever. It's for work! Really!

I'm sorry, we just can't help you do actual work. Fun or porn, yes, but not work.

Is it ok if it's fun work?

I'm so glad I put the Home Movies soundtrack on my ipod. Every once in a while someone will be in the office when the thing starts playing "Septopus" or "He is Franz Kafka!" and it really freaks them out.

The lj icons I made by myself are just wee pictures. I don't know how to do captions or animation or suchlike.

I'm not sure I'm looking for animation at this stage. I'll mention it, but I'd rather start simple, and then if they like that, I can say they can be animated.

in lj all I did was use 'paint' to crop down a digital picture until it was small enough, save it as a .jpeg and then upload it as an icon. That's the extent of my icon making knowledge.

Laga, homemade tomato soup is only marginally more difficult to make than making it from a condensed can... and the results are much more than marginally better. Come morning, I'll type up the recipe I like and email it to you. Profile addy is good, right?
